Answer: see below proof

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine a diagonal line AC

If AB = DC and AB // DC then angle BAC =

Angle ACD Alternate Interior angles theorem.

Then if AB = AD and angle BAC = angle ACD and AC = AC then triangle ABC is congruent to triangle CDA.

If triangle ABC is congruent to triangle CDA then AD = BC because congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

If triangle ABC is congruent to triangle CDA then angle ACB = angle CAD because congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

If angle ACB = angle CAD then AD // BC because of the alternate interior angles theorem.

Triangle ABC has vertices A(–2, 3), B(0, 3), and C(–1, –1). Find the coordinates of the image after a reflection over the x-axis
azamat
Since it's a reflection over the x axis, the x coordinates will stay the same while the y coordinates will be opposite of what they are. 

After reflected: A'(-2,-3), B'(0,-3), C'(-1,1)
